According to Stop The Steal's "national organizer" Ali "Alexander" Akbar's Instagram story, he has lost access to his @venmo, @CashApp, and @PayPal. He had been fundraising post Capitol storming, citing his need for 24/7 security guards.
He is still raising money using Bitcoin, where he's raised tens of thousands of dollars worth since the Capitol was stormed.

He is now soliciting paper checks to a UPS store in Ft. Worth, Texas
having been booted off the major payment processing apps, he is now using GiveSendGo, a "Christian Fundraising" site. He has raised over $10k there. The people behind the app seem sympathetic to his cause and also host a fundraiser for Sidney Powell.

Looks like a Coast Guard helicopter overhead during Steve Bannon's arrest on a yacht in Westbrook, CT.
Data from @ADSBexchange shows the Coast Guard HH-60J aircraft starts circling the area around 6:35AM, just after sunrise. Cirlces for about an hour and then departs.
The Lady May yacht, owned by Chinese businessman and Bannon acquaintance Guo Wengui, was picked up near Westport, CT on June 17th. It matches description of a 150ft yacht. marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/sh…
THREAD: The CDC advised dentists to postpone everything but emergency dental care due to #COVID19. Then the lobbyists showed up.

The original CDC guidance was clear: Postpone everything but emergency care. The new guidance is vague and tossed the recommendation.

Right: new guidance
So what happened? The American Dental Association, whose power has been compared to that of the NRA, represents big dental business and individual dental practices that can afford the membership fees. The ADA spent over half a million $ lobbying from Jan-March.
